Guest guest Posted May 4, 2003 Report Share Posted May 4, 2003 This is a really nice salsa recipe. I added more garlic than the original recipe called for. I admit I was quite intrigued over what the microwaving process had to add to this recipe. I think it is nuked in such manner to help in the combining of flavors or breaking down of the tomatoes, peppers, and onions a bit so they are more tender. Microwave Salsa 3 medium tomato, chopped 1 green onion, sliced 3 garlic cloves, minced 3 Tbs finely chopped green pepper 1 Tbs lemon juice 1 1/2 tsp minced fresh basil or 1/2 tsp dried basil 1/2 tsp chili powder 1/2 tsp salt 1/8 tsp pepper In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the tomatoes, onion and garlic. Add green pepper, lemon juice and seasonings; mix well/ Microwave on high for 45 to 60 seconds or until heated through. Salsa can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days. Yield: 4 cups ~ PT ~ Change is not necessarily progress. ~ Joe Moore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 Hmmm - warm salsa? Very interesting.... On a side note - does that mean the salsa goes bad after three days? That would be no good. , " ~ P_T ~ " <patchouli_troll> wrote: > This is a really nice salsa recipe. I added more garlic > than the original recipe called for.

Guest guest Posted May 5, 2003 Report Share Posted May 5, 2003 I actually chilled it after making it. Just a preference thing but I don't like warm salsa. Room temp or chilled for me. As far as it going bad, no. I wouldn't go that far. I think the recipe merely means it is at its best during the first three days, that is if it lasts that long, which in my house it does not. *lol* ~ PT ~ One pound of learning requires ten pounds of common sense to apply it. ~ Persian proverb ~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~> , " Jigilou Snicklefitz " < jigilou> wrote: > Hmmm - warm salsa?
